7 July 08, Monday and 8 July 08, Tuesday

We stopped at Liard Hot Springs Provincial Park and decided to stay for two days. The water comes out at 53º C, way too hot for us. A bit later in the pool a fresh water –no sulphur- and cold enters the pool so you can almost choose your temperature. Now we are really clean after soaking in the hot water.

Driving here we saw many buffalo, even a herd of more than 26 adults and many with calves.

On the ferry we met another couple from Oregon who also drive a Sprinter with a Roadtrek motor-home; we met them again here after travelling thousands of kilometres all over Alaska. It was nice to compare notes with them. We also met a couple who immigrated from Poland in the hot springs. He was born in Danzig and he also knows the small village of Käsemark where I was born.
